She's a rebel in training. The school system is severely flawed and she might not fully comprehend that, but it seems that she has a good sense of the bullshit that's going on. Kids who stick out in the school system in such a way are likely to rise above society when they are older. She might not even mean what she says, but rather is just challenging the system. Maybe you should switch her schools. A magnet school where she can indulge in her own unique interests might be good for her.
When I was 12 we had a project in school where we had to demonstrate a problem on a paper grocery bag to be sent back to the grocery store and I drew a representation of population control - happy people on a globe waiting to die -partly because I was curious about the subject and partly because I felt people were already aware of all the other problems like pollution and endangered species. At the time I didn't know if I supported population control or what, I just knew it was different and it made a lame project more exciting. It is likely that the government has confiscated that bag and labeled me as a possible terrorist (or perhaps a good citizen) because that's what they do to people who think differently.
Scary daughter 2 :(
